Hey Guys,

Here's a quick teaser of a commissioned 1:1 silicone Ledger Joker that is in the works! I just finished with the hair work and he'll be all wrapped this weekend! The client wanted to really capture 'Ledger's Likeness'... we even changed the expression a few times on this one until we were both satisfied we achieved his likeness ;) He also made it clear he wanted this bust to have the body language of Ledger's Joker. I never liked my first Joker... so getting a chance to make him right has been a lot of fun!

Please excuse the horrible IPhone pics, I have my photographer friend shooting the final bust this weekend!

Re: 'Wanna Know How I Got These Scars?' Ledger Silicone Bust WIP

Thanks guys!

I knew you were an amazing sculptor, but you're a pretty good hairdresser too!

Not really... I just used human hair that already had the wave in it and cut everything to length as I went up the scalp. Basically just went really slow ;)

I know... but since I'll have the bust all dressed up and shot proper this weekend I couldn't take good pics, could I? :love

Another homerun Howard! Looks terrific!!!
 
Re: 'Wanna Know How I Got These Scars?' Ledger Silicone Bust WIP

Excellent sculpt. But that paint job knocks it to interstellar!

You've nailed the glower for sure.
 
Re: 'Wanna Know How I Got These Scars?' Ledger Silicone Bust WIP

Thanks again folks!! I hope with the final touches on this bust that the overall feel and body language of Ledger's Joker will pop ;)

looking great Howard, I hope the finshed display pictures keep him in this leaning slightly forward pose as it sets him off very nicely

great to see you re-visit him, It was the same with your old Indiana sculpt they just got better every time :) and moving them into silicone is just a bonus when it comes to the finishing

looking forward to the new pics

HOly crap that creeped me out.
I hadn't scrolled the page down very far
and I really thought
"wow he actually has pictures of Heath Ledger while they were doing his makeup.
And then I scrolled down a bit and saw that it was a bust.

Geez
I keep going back up to look at it and I still think thats him.
I bow down to your greatness
 
Re: 'Wanna Know How I Got These Scars?' Ledger Silicone Bust WIP

That looks great, Can't wait to see the final pictures. Just out of curiosity how many sculpts do you normally have going on at the same time?
 
Re: 'Wanna Know How I Got These Scars?' Ledger Silicone Bust WIP

Where's that button. . .oh here it is *click*:

"This is AMAZING, Great sculpt, wonderful paint job etc. etc" :D

Really awesome as always Howard and like all the others, I can't wait to see how you finish the display off.
